Accountants, banks and brokerages have proven themselves to be half as competent at protecting your critical data, conceding to more than 1.9 million lost SSNs. And the health care industry fares even worse: 2.4 million.
But the King of Data Giveaways, with over 40 million Social Security numbers stolen in just six months, is your government... local, state and federal. The raw data from Privacy Rights Clearinghouse's latest report bears me out.
